For the same reason I've always loved the suits: they're fun, they're fast, I love to swim in them, and I prefer max coverage & max technology.
EXACTLY!
Plus... I went to a LC masters meet the weekend before Atlanta and didn't have a new suit to wear. I didn't care about the times or lack of a tech suit since I was off to nationals.
But - it was such a weird - no horrible feeling getting up on the blocks in a regular suit, with it all hanging out, after all this time in a full coverage suit!
There were plenty of other athletes doing their best to suck it up too.
Not that we have to look pretty in masters, but we should feel comfortable.
I do like coverage at meets and am at least happy the girls get to wear a knee to shoulder suit with the new rules.
Wish our guys could as well - its only fair.
